    This plays more media types and shows a headphone socket with 2 hour battery life

    Uses memory cards as well

    It must be an out of date icon, or maybe it shows after you enter card details. Thanks for finding it, but im not hugely desperate for it at over £40.

    It is supposed to be automatically discounted at the checkout but am going to ring them in the morning to see what they say

    terrible service from currys, I called them to ask about why the discount wasnt being applied, Got told that they were having technical problems and should be fixed by tuesday, I asked if they could take my order on the phone and apply the discount, They said no (I had to laugh)

    Anyway, Looking at the site today,The items have increased in price, So the items must of already had the 20% discount applied, But then looking at the partner site Dixons, These items are still showing at the price currys originally had them at....so in theory, the 20% discount doesnt actually exist, As if you buy say something that is listed at £100 at currys, go to checkout and you get charged £80 (all being good) But go to dixons and the same item is £80 without any discount being applied......confusing isnt
